Welcome to MeerPush.

MeerPush is a fast and effective way to deploy websites to IIS with built-in support for IIS6 and IIS7.

• NOTE: MeerPush takes full advantage of IronRuby, allowing a flexible ruby dsl while using the power of the .NET framework to deploy the sites.*

Examples

MeerPush currently has two different ways

Rake

require 'meerpush'

task :deploy => [:delete, :create, :start]

desc "Delete Website"
delete_site :delete do |w|
    w.name = 'Meerpush_Website'
end

desc "Create Website"
create_site :create => :delete do |w|
    w.name = 'Meerpush_Website'
    w.home = 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot'
end

desc "Start Website"
start_site :start do |w|
    w.name = 'Meerpush_Website'
end

Natural language

Remove website 'test_site' if exists on 'localhost'
Create website 'test_site' on 'localhost'
on port '8080'
with home directory 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot'
create and start

Executing

Rake

• Include the above snippet in your rakefile
• Enter the following command to deploy your site > irake deploy

Natural language

• Create a rakefile together with a script file in the format as shown above.
• Within the rakefile, simply include the code require 'meerpush'
• Execute the script by entering the following command together with the name of the script file: > irake dsl:deploy script=name_of_deployment_script
